Komatsu America Corp. (KAC) announces the introduction of the PC78US-8 compact hydraulic excavator designed for increased production and added operator comfort, when compared to previous models. The new excavator is well suited for a variety of construction, utility, landscaping and other small- to mid-sized applications.

Data such as operating hours, machine location, maintenance notifications, out of area notifications, machine utilization, and residual fuel levels are just a few of the features that are relayed to the web application for analysis. The KOMTRAX fleet monitoring system increases machine availability, reduces the risk of machine theft and provides a wealth of other information to drive business efficiency.

Special features of the PC78US-8 include:
